"In 2006, my boyfreind dumped me, and instead of watching films like 'The Notebook' and drinking countless bottles of red wine, I had loads of I LOVE MEL badges made and gave them away. Seeing people openly declaring their love for me lifted my spirits. I soon got over my ex and the I LOVE MEL brand was born."
